darkspeedy26 replied to darkspeedy26's topic in Troubleshooting
so basicaly its likely that its anything except gpu/cpu/ram, correct? EDIT: still pretty vague -
hey everyone, I got some wierd and consistent freezes, please help: -about my system thats on my profile (was watercooled with a gtx770, ivy bridge i5 3570K,...) -about parents pc: i5 3570K (same model as mine, but other mobo) -every hardware change had a fresh install of windows on its bootdrive , mobo, cpu and cpu cooler of the 2 systems were always held together in the swapping errors i had: - wierd artifacts, even on desktop (did see it sooner on desktop than in osu! (simple 2D game), IIRC the pixels were shown on the wrong place -> bought a gtx980Ti and new psu ( rm750i) and case -> works for about 2 months - pc froze (freezes in windows, can still move mouse and click non reacting buttons for a while, after a couple minutes only mouse moving, weeks after that: mobo couldnt find the boot drive) ->tought mobo and/or cpu must have died as well-> swapped mobo and cpu and boot ssd with parents pc -> works again for about 2 months - i am having the freezing problem again (windows keeps stable ish for about 2 - 5 minutes for now) -> the only problem i can think is that my initial system infected components of my parents or new components any advice/ help/more information needed? thanks, darkspeedy26

[build log] diagonalmod: first stage complete
darkspeedy26 replied to darkspeedy26's topic in Build Logs
hey guys, if anyone is still following this: i basically have run my system +- in that state for almost a year. I didn't find the time and courage to really work on it hard enough, and i still haven't figured out how i would build the top and front part, without it costing more than a couple hundreds. About 2 weeks ago my gtx770 died, and since the holes in the orange plates wouldn't align with the waterblock of any upgrade, and since i didnt thrust the psu anymore, i figured i might just buy a new case (that was finished in the factory) new parts: - evga 980ti superclocked (still have to buy a waterblock) - corsair rm750i psu - corsair 750D - soft tubing - fittings: these normally are for compressed air, but i like the orange, and they work as well around summer ill probably put a new cpu, mobo and ram in. perhaps a bigger ssd as well -
whoah, thanks for sharing edit: please dont say your motherboard is painted in that same plastidip...

i get a 404 page

maybe introduce us to them... you could do a kind of intro/wrap-up video of what kind of products they have, and their most popular ones. i want to get to know the brand, but not one particular device. (is it a cheap brand, do they care about quality,...) edit: i know it would be hard to get access to all the devices, but i would like it anyways

[build log] diagonalmod: first stage complete
darkspeedy26 replied to darkspeedy26's topic in Build Logs
update: stage 1 complete = she can run again the colors are a bit weird with this camera. should be a bit brighter she boots, she doesn't leak anymore, she runs and she keeps cool If you pay close attention you can see the sleeved cables: pcie + atx + cpu power. also you can see the single 120mm fan alongside of the 2 140mm fan. This will be fixed somewhere in the future. Hiding this mess is going to be tough. For example: i HAVE to put the atx and pcie connectors in the cpu heatsink cutout, because i didn't want to leave to much space behind the motherboard. (its less then 1 cm. could even be 8mm or less) In order to wire up the fans to a single connector, i had to make a splitter cable myself. Worked out better than i hoped. proof that she wasn't started up in a long time -
What's the estimated lifespan of a mechanical k…
darkspeedy26 replied to Tech_Dreamer's status update
well, i was pretty hard to them + its over 2 years old (even tho i play osu only 3/4 year) roughly calculated with my play amount i must have mashed/beat that key about 3 to 6 million times, wich is a lot for mashing. I still wouldn't recommend anything other than mechanical keyboards oh yeah, my deffinition of mashing = hitting it so hard that your fingers hurt -

darkspeedy26 replied to Tech_Dreamer's status update
it all depends on how much and how hard you type. of course its going to be much longer than non-mechanical keyboards (i would say 5 to 10 times longer) -

@STRMfrmXMN my numpad2 (cherry black) isn't working correctly after 3/4 of a year playing osu! verry intensivly (= mashing it hard), but for normal use as typing about 10 to 30 years i guess -

Orange Yellow OR GOLD I can"t tell!
darkspeedy26 replied to SeifSpeed's topic in CPUs, Motherboards, and Memory
was there an option for it not to be orange in the first place? edit: IMO it depends on the rest of the colors of your build, but if you can still choose, go for the ltt colors -

update: hype sry its so shaky only thing i got for you guys is a teaser, she doesnt leak AFAIK, pictures will be made and uploaded tomorow. you can also see a glimpse of the sleeved cables (black bitfenix alchemy) still need to mount the hard drive before i can test if she boots next update -
so, today i was looking at the linustechtips uploads. While loving the perfect symmetry, a mate and i discovered their secret. This must be why they like their 1 video a day thing. I am on to you LTT <_< they keep doing it (except for the CES period) Illuminati confirmed
